Description
Adjective/Verb + (으)면 : This pattern is a non final ending used for conditional statements, equivalent to 'if' in English. If there is a time period [i.e. minute(s), day(s) week(s), month(s) etc] 있으면 Noun + 이다 pattern, then the meaning of 있으면 is "in (time period)" or "after (time period)." See examples below.
Notes
- If the subject of the dependent and main clause are the same then you use the contrast markers 는/은.
- If the subject of the dependent and main clause are different, then use the subject markers 가/이.
- The dependent clause is attached to 면 and followed by the main clause. See the example below:
| Dependent clause | Main clause |
|---|---|
| 다음 주에 서울로 오면 | 전화해 주세요 |
| If you come to Seoul next week | please call me. |
Conjugation Rule
| Pattern | Case | Example | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rule 1: | A/V + 면 | If there is no 받침 or if the adjective/verb stem has ㄹ as a 받침 | 가다 → 가면 알다 → 알면 |
| Rule 2: | A/V + 으면 | If there is a 받침 at the end of the adjective/verb stem | 먹다 → 먹으면 없다 → 없으면 |
